# Menu

The *Menu* node allows you to create a menu with options that the customer can select from. This node type usually serves as the first message a customer sees when engaging with your brand.

The customer's selection determines what happens next - each option triggers either another step or a new workflow. If the customer enters an invalid option (i.e., an option that is not on the list), you can configure a "default" node or flow to follow automatically. The default flow is optional, and if not set up, the node will simply repeat itself if an invalid option is entered.
